Airbnb is expanding into the adventure travel market with excursions like safaris and desert treks. It's called Airbnb Adventures.
The home-sharing company on Thursday launched Airbnb Adventures, which it describes as a collection of"bucket list worthy multi-day experiences" in places around the world. The packages vary widely in price, depending on the length and location of the tour. For example, a 10-day rafting trip in Yukon costs $5,000 per person. For $1,000 per person, there's an overnight camping trip with a tent on the edge of a cliff in Colorado.
Transportation costs to and from the tour, like airfare, are not included in the package. And trips are capped at 12 guests. The tours are exclusive to Airbnb and provided by local operators"that are not typically found on any other major booking platform," the company said in a release. It already offers Airbnb Experiences, which are cheaper and shorter guided tours and activities.
